A Traffic Inspector in New Delhi has accused Madhur Verma, DCP, New Delhi district of thrashing and hurling abuses at him.
Traffic Inspector Karmveer, who is posted in Khan Market Circle, alleged that on Sunday night, a vehicle which was being driven by DCP's operator approached from the wrong side. Karmveer stopped the vehicle and questioned the driver, following which an argument broke out between the two over it. The inspector then threatened to challan him to which the driver replied that he was the DCP's operator.
Karmveer alleged that after the incident, the SHO called him at the Police Station at 11 pm where DCP Madhur Varma was present. According to the Traffic Inspector, Verma first hurled abuses at him and even beat him up when he asked the DCP not to abuse. Thereafter, the inspector lodged a complaint against the DCP in the police station and with the Delhi Police Commissioner, Governor and Prime Minister's office.
However, Verma has rejected these allegations.
"On Sunday, the Traffic Inspector behaved rudely with a rider who was riding a Puducherry vehicle as also with his subordinates in the Delhi Police. He apologised for the same to DCP and the subordinates. However, when he (Traffic Inspector) realised that there will be departmental action against him, he has made up a story and is levelling false allegations," the DCP said.
